The kitchen is a special living space within an interior: whether in terms of decor, style or space, it is sometimes normal to lack ideas for painting the kitchen.
The choice of color but also of the finish in a house but more particularly in your kitchen, is very important, whether it is of course for a question of aesthetics and decoration, but also for the sustainability of your project. To help you best in the design of your kitchen space, we suggest you book a free color consultation intended to give you a real idea of what you can achieve in your room, all while taking into account the existing style, the worktop, the splashback and more generally the furniture of your kitchen.
Why book a color consultation for the kitchen at home?
Avoid common mistakes when choosing colors in the kitchen
Choosing colors can sometimes be difficult in kitchens: the positioning of the furniture, the size of the room or the color of the worktop or furniture can create certain constraints.
This is a mistake that can be easily made, in all rooms of the house: in particular, by not taking into account the elements and materials already present. First, the furniture, the worktop, the color of the facades or a central island which are often fixed and difficult to modify in a kitchen. For example, there are colors that work particularly well with the color of the wood (or imitation wood), but which, with metal design elements, will not be suitable, for example.
Personalized color advice for your kitchen decor, beyond giving you ideas, will also allow you to project yourself into your interior without fear with color ideas adapted to the brightness of your room and the current trend in terms of color and design.
In kitchens, for example, using a cool color can create a dull atmosphere. If your kitchen is well-lit, the color will be enhanced. Our color consultant's role is to offer inspiration based on the room's exposure, size, and amount of natural light.
Beyond aesthetic considerations, think about the paint to apply to the wall in the kitchen: it is essential to use a washable paint, suitable for use in a kitchen and bio-sourced as much as possible!
Take advantage of expert decorating advice for your kitchen!
The goal is to enhance your kitchen space! We've already handled a large number of kitchen projects, and decorating is one option to optimize your space and provide you with a cozy corner for preparing your meals.
Anne-Sophie's work also involves drawing on existing materials to better integrate them into the kitchen: light wood will go perfectly with soft shades (linen color, sage green). A dark floor may force you to use other colors.
The goal is to offer a modern and bold combination, while also taking into account your desires and style. We also recommend sending photos of your apartment before the consultation begins to provide you with the best inspiration for your kitchen decor.
What color should I use in kitchens?
When it comes to kitchen decor, if you want a warm kitchen, then we recommend using warm colors like terracotta or golden caramel beige.
While kitchen components can be a barrier, the color of the fronts or the central island can help create a contemporary harmony and even create elegant contrasts. The kitchen ceiling also plays a role, along with the backsplashes.
When it comes to kitchen decor and style, it's common knowledge that the size of the room and its layout will influence the ideas that can be implemented during your project. For example, you could paint your doors or simply consider creating continuity with your living room if your kitchen is open-plan.
The sage green of the moors
It's a color that definitely has its place in a kitchen, especially if you have wood or wood-effect elements like the splashback or worktop, for example. This will give you a trendy and modern kitchen.
It can be used on a wall or a piece of furniture with white fronts. A touch of black can also be useful to add elegance.
The coquettish hazelnut beige
Your kitchen decor should be neutral yet warm. The advantage of using beige is that it allows you to explore other color ideas. It's also a great option if you have to work with materials and elements that are integral to your room, such as a cabinet, the sink, or any other component of your kitchen.
The navy blue of the seven islands
We don't always think of this shade when we imagine the layout of the kitchen and for good reason: its depth can be daunting if we want to include it in a decoration project. However, it is an excellent idea if you have white on your facades or wooden elements in the kitchen with a modern design, nothing prevents you from using it for the renovation of the kitchen of your apartment.
Of course, navy blue is perfect when used with a very light color and use it on one section of wall only.
Warm white
Warm white has been a particularly stylish and trendy shade in recent months, and the kitchen is one room that's no exception. A very easy-to-live-with white, it's an alternative to standard white in renovation projects, which is considered too neutral and cold. Warm white is therefore a good idea for your kitchen design.
Anne-Sophie's extra idea
If you want to bring even more color into your home, there's nothing stopping you from painting your wooden kitchen cabinets! While we don't necessarily recommend using our furniture paint on the splashback, fronts, or worktop, there's nothing stopping you from painting the rest of your wooden cabinets and even the inside of a cupboard to bring even more life to your meal preparation!
